Ok, so the Bulldogs did not win, but they did give USC a run for their money and it was really, really close!!!!
Final score: Fresno 42, USC 50.
The Bulldogs were ahead 21-13 at half time but the Trojans proved why they are the # 1 team by coming back in the 3rd & 4th quarters. USC has an incredible running back (to remain unamed) that our mighty defense just couldn't catch. I won't reveal his name because he's all the announcers could talk about and all who watched on tv pretty much got sick of hearing his name. We got the lead back late in the 4th quarter, but lost it again when USC got back-to-back touchdowns. A sold out crowd of over 90 thousand all cheered this incredibly exciting game.
We were the underdog, by far, by 23 points. Who knew that we (the FRESNO STATE BULLDOGS!!) could make USC work for their win and come as close to a one touch-down difference. Considering all who have played the 'mighty' Trojans have gotten blown away, I think it says a whole heck of a lot for our team that WE could nearly beat the # 1 team. It says a lot for our football program, our coaches, and our players.
Good game, boys! Always and forever, a Bulldog Fan!!
On to a new week.... a short week.... and Thanksgiving!
Have a blessed one!
